"Jealous" Thai husband shoots five of his wife's family dead and flees

The hunt is on in Uttaradit in northern Thailand for a Thai husband who shot his wife and four of her family in a shooting rampage at the weekend. 

 

There were two crime scenes. The shooter is believed to be a man called Theeraphon, aged 37. 

 

At one house in Phayamaen sub-district of Phichai district police found three people shot. They were Theeraphon's mother in law and father in law Wirat and Nampheung. His wife Kanyarat was also shot dead there.

 

At a nearby house were both the elder sister and younger sister of Theeraphon's mother in law - Nampha and Kanokwan. They too had been shot dead. 

 

Acting police chief Pol Maj-Gen Payoo Thanasriseubwong ordered checkpoints to be set up in the area after Theeraphon fled in a white Toyota Camry. He is still believed to be in Phichai district.

 

Pratchaya told Sanook that the shooter had been living with Kanyarat for some considerable time. But recently there had been many arguments and divorce was in the air. 

 

The husband was convinced of his wife's infidelity but despite his jealousy there was no truth in it. 

 

On this occasion he clearly "lost it" shooting the sisters first then moving onto the wife and her parents.

He just shot everyone, how could they know she was faithful?

 

This killing the woman's family is getting totally out of hand here now, I can understand someone killing their lover, but going after all her relatives seems 'excessive'.

I suspect all the female family members have been nagging him about being a no good deadbeat. About him getting a better job, bring home more money et al...

There maybe a lot of “insecurity” among males, but in most countries they don’t resort to murdering . Loss of face is meaningless to the majority of males outside of asian bubble!

Sorry, have to disagree. Western news carries similar stories frequently of violence/murder attributed to  "crimes of passion",  jealousy and being spurned the leading causes.   

 

true and brazil is a leading culprit . https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/07/world/americas/domestic-abuse-shown-blow-by-blow-shocks-brazil.html

 

still does not mitigate what happens in thailand.

 

killing the whole family is something the most violent drug cartels have done.

I don't know whether some of you have reading comprehension problems, but this story is about obliterating, practically, a whole family, not just 'spouse murder'. In my 45 years in the UK, before moving here, I cannot recall reading about any similar incident there during that time.

very common world wide if you don't have a 'searching online' issue

Replace 'divorce' with 'loss of face' !

Another horrendous act by a Thai bloke unable to handle his emotions.

A tragedy for all her family.

A tragedy for all her family.

 

an under statement.

Unless they were complicit in knowing something which was enough of an excuse for him to murder them all !

This is the LOS, so smile, just smile and have a happy Monday.

Good, we all should view this thread as very positive and praise the Thais for their "jai yen", and their wonderful family values. Wait I almost forgot the peaceful Buddha religion.

latest big news one in the U.S.,  as stated above quite common world wide.

Yes, you get your "un point", but the US pooh you refer to happened in August last year. In Thailand it's a weekly event, even though the population is more than five times less than the US. Do the maths!
